Is Chloe Larry a point guard?

---

tennessee tech only played one p4 school last year - usc (juju's team, not dawn's). here's a link to that game. i like watching a whole game so i can see mistakes and what little things a player is good at.
she's #21 in purple

(why would this be downvoted?? like really??)

looks like the 6'5" pitt girl (fatima diakhate) ended up at rutgers with redus. interesting...

wait, is that the russian flag?? well that should go over great with kate.

South Carolina must have the biggest payroll in the country

no. thats not it. dawn is not giving players a windfall. that's why you didnt see liv mcgill or audi or kyomi miller on their list of targets. if your first priority is money, then that's not the program for you. geno is most definitely the same way. i wanna say that i saw an article about how all the players get the same amount of money (from the school donor bucket of the nil), and whatever additional monies the players make, its from their own personal nil deals and endorsements with local (or national) companies.

Could Crooks be an option now that we have her pg?

---

as crazy as it sounds, ive been watching more iowa state games now that we've picked up jada williams: i wouldnt be mad if we got audi! :lol:

the girl is a MONSTER scorer! she's like a guaranteed bucket on the low post!! she can catch anything thrown at her!!! i think a lot of the reason why she doesnt play defense is because she doesnt want to get into foul trouble (?). she's imposing and hard to miss. if she just puts her hands on a player they flop and she gets stupid fouls called on her.

ugh! im so torn! how do you NOT find a way to make her fit SOME kinda scheme!? a lot of teams are passing on her for that reason. but watch, the team that ends up with her will be unstoppable next year! it may not matter anyway, because im sure she's asking for a huge bag and i dont think we have her kind of money leftover.

Flaujae has rap and endorsements to supplement her WNBA salary.

---

thanks to the new cba deal, as the #8 pick she'll be making about $310K for her rookie year! a big jump from the $75K the rookies made last year.

not anymore! she just got traded to the seattle storm!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Edwards goes to Carolina

---

no, thats not happening. when she committed to tennessee, dawn picked up kelsi andrews (6'3) and kaeli wynn (6'2) instead. so she may not end up behind those 2, but she would certainly be behind joyce, chloe, ashlyn, and the big french girl for playing time.

on a more curious note, kymora johnson (the hotshot point guard that everyone wants out of virginia) went on her visit to south carolina this weekend and looks like they didnt get an immediate commitment. which is kinda surprising since they are REALLY looking for a point guard to replace raven. i know we're not in the running, but it'd be interesting to see where else she goes to visit, and if she'll end up at carolina at all.

Anyway, it would seem there would be enough to work with to get two solid bigs.

i dunno. let's do some math, keeping in mind this is totally arbitrary:
jada $200k
bella $100k
divine $100k
amiya $100k
kg $200k
flaujae $0 (pretty sure mulkey said in a presser that flaujae makes her own money, she gets no lsu money)
gotta think mk and lay are making at least $1 million. maybe??

so that's $700k to play with. which 2 can we get for that? trygger was asking for $700k alone, so she's out! chime in. let's see what we can come up with!
:lol:
